AGENCY: Office of the Assistant 

Secretary for Policy, Chief Evaluation 

Office, Labor 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor 

(DOL), as part of its continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burden, conducts a preclearance 

consultation program to provide the 

general public and Federal agencies 

with an opportunity to comment on 

proposed and/or continuing collections 

of information in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This 

program helps to ensure that required 

data can be provided in the desired 

format, reporting burden (time and 

financial resources) is minimized, 

collection instruments are clearly 

understood, and the impact of collection 

requirements on respondents can be 

properly assessed. The Department is 

soliciting comments concerning its 

proposal to collect information from 

program participants through a 

participant tracking system (PTS). 

DATES: Written comments must be 

submitted to the office listed in the 

addressee section below on or before 

September 22, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: A copy of this information 

collection request, with applicable 

supporting documentation; including a 

description of the likely respondents, 

proposed frequency of response, and 

estimated total burden may be obtained 

free of charge contacting Jonathan 

Simonetta, Chief Evaluation Office, U.S. 

Department of Labor, Room S–2312, 200 

Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, 

DC 20210.

the following methods: Email:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

1. Background: The Opportunities for 

Youth project has three primary goals: 

(1) To develop and pilot promising 

intervention(s) to improve the 

employment outcomes of disconnected 

youth, (2) to conduct a formative 

evaluation of the implementation of the 

intervention, and (3) to design and 

assess an implementation analysis, and 

an assessment of systemic factors that 

are necessary to successfully implement 

the intervention. Disconnected youth 

are defined as young people between 

the ages of 16 and 24 who are not 

currently in school or employed. This is 

the first time DOL will focus on 

evaluation specifically on disconnected 

youth. 

The proposed interventions fill gaps 

in services and expand on current 

services in two pilot sites, Boston’s 

Mayor’s Office of Jobs & Community 

Services (MOJCS) and Baltimore’s 

Mayor’s Office of Employment 

Development (MOED). In Boston, the 

proposed intervention fills a gap in 

services by providing career training for 

youth who have completed their GED or 

high school degree. In Boston, according 

to MOJCS, educational programs aimed 

at young people steer them toward a 

four-year college degree, while career 

training is geared toward adults. 

Boston’s MOJCS currently provides 

programs that aim to get youth a high 

school degree. A career training program 

to serve youth who have completed 

their high school degree would fill an 

important gap in services. In Baltimore, 

the proposed intervention primarily 

expands on current services for 

disconnected youth who do not have a 

high school degree. The proposed 

intervention developed with Baltimore 

is designed to keep youth without a 

high school degree engaged in an 

academic and career training program 

until they receive their certification and 

degree and to provide financial support 

during that process. The proposal would 

expand on the current services provided 

for these youth in Baltimore by creating 

an integrated job training program for 

them. 

Underpinning both of these proposals 

will be the provision of a caring adult 

who will help participants navigate 

their respective education and training 

programs. These caring adults will take 

the form of a career navigator or case 

manager who will meet frequently with 

participants as they go through their 

respective programs and provide 

consistent support to these 

disconnected youth as they traverse 

their education and training. 

To gauge the efficacy of the services 

provided to participants in these two 

cities, a participant tracking system 

(PTS) will be developed to measure 

youth outcomes, program 

implementation, and relevant 

contextual (systemic) factors of every 

participant who enters the two 

respective programs. The data collection 

effort with this group will gather 

information about participants’ 

demographic backgrounds; their 

education and training as they go 

through their respective programs; their 

employment and wages before, during, 

and after program completion; the 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 140 / Tuesday, July 22, 2014 / Notices 42537 

supports they receive; and their 

interactions with their assigned caring 

adult. 

This tracking system will provide 

critical information to Department 

policymakers on whether participants 

are effectively receiving education and 

training services, as well as the dosage 

and length of the caring adult model 

services. Data collection tasks include: 

(1) Design and test the PTS; and (2) 

execute the PTS, and (3) analyze the 

data and report the results. The period 

of performance of this evaluation ends 

in March 2016. The overall budget for 

the evaluation is $3,000,000. The 

evaluation contractor is The Urban 

Institute. 

2. Desired Focus of Comments:

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Underground Construction Standard 

information collection requirements 

codified in regulations 29 CFR 

1926.800. The requirements apply to an 

Occupation Safety and Health Act (OSH 

Act) covered employer engaged in 

underground construction. The 

information collections the DOL seeks 

to extend by this ICR include: (1) 

Posting various warning signs and 

notices, (2) developing and maintaining 

certification inspection records for 

hoists, and (3) developing and 

maintaining records of air quality tests. 

OSH Act sections 6(b)(7) and 8 

authorize this information collection. 

See 29 U.S.C. 655, 657. 

This information collection is subject 

to the PRA. A Federal agency generally 

cannot conduct or sponsor a collection 

of information, and the public is 

generally not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless it is 

approved by the OMB under the PRA 

and displays a currently valid OMB 

Control Number. In addition, 

notwithstanding any other provisions of 

law, no person shall generally be subject 

to penalty for failing to comply with a 

collection of information that does not 

display a valid Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
